Ex-SIA here
Already replied to similar posts but will say it again:
- Partners in Middle East are a group of 4 stingy mafia men that hide revenues from global office. They only care about their interest and don’t care whatsoever regarding their employees
- They are only strong in innovation (very limited exposure to other practices)
- Quality of Middle East consultants is very poor and you won’t learn much
- Pay is slightly less than Big 4 and bonus is almost negligible
- Good work life balance

Please feel free to reach out to me for more details

SIA partners 2:

Had to read your post 3 times to understand what you were saying, which depicts the quality of consultants/leadership hired at SIA 😂😂

If it’s a pay bump do it. If barely, don’t. No real vision for the company moving fwd and bonuses are basically non existent for consulting standards. Many are on the way out

Don’t listen to the noise here… Most of these folks are likely from US with nothing better to do. It’s a growing firm and it’s not perfect but if you want to be a part of a growth story… you should take the offer.
